The Hobbit Hole XXI - ...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/21/2005 6:44:57 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

We are not utterly depraved.

We are totally depraved. There is a subtle, yet important, distinction.

Hey there, OT!

Shortbread.
Twinkies.
Cornbread.
Nilla Wafers.

I think I've covered it, right? LOL!

How would you get Twinkies in a toaster? I have heard of deep-fried Twinkies but not toasted Twinkies.

I'm watching the season finale of "LOST", so I'll be in and out as commercials play. :-D

You'd have to smash 'em a bit before putting them in.

We're gonna watch a movie on a real TV! Got a nice used one today. Hooray! Rigging a laptop that then would overheat and drop frames just wasn't that fun.

That's one of my favorites of Austen's...but I dunno how much I like the movie. Some characters were right, some were way off, IMO.

Cornbread is too crumbly but at least it's goo-free.

Well, we've got the Team America DVD, and we'd better check it out, for the good of the country. :~D
